Serengeti National Park

Today, we head to the iconic Serengeti, where we'll commence an afternoon game drive in this magnificent park. Renowned for its vast plains of savannah and diverse forest landscapes, the Serengeti spans approximately 30,000 km2, with 80% of its territory lying in Tanzania. The park is most famous for the remarkable annual migration, where around 1.5 million herbivores and their predators cross the plains, driven by seasonal changes and the search for water and grazing lands. Witness this awe-inspiring spectacle as thousands of animals move from the northern hills to the southern plains and back again after the rains in mid-April. The grasslands, covering over one-third of the park, provide a habitat for an abundance of wildlife year-round. As the day draws to a close, we'll reach Africa Safari Serengeti Ikoma, your home for the next two nights.
